"And whatever your particular problem is, I promise you the GOP is not the least bit interested in solving it. They are interested in 2 things, and 2 things only: making you afraid of it, and telling you who’s to blame for it. That, ladies and gentlemen, is how you win elections"
Great movie. 💙

The brutality. The corruption. The lies.

Everything is on full display — and many Americans are beginning to learn an important lesson.

Watch.

In the history of mealymouthed disingenuousness in American politics, few have come even close to this annoying puritanical pixie.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Hold on a second. Answer the question. As Speaker, do you believe it's appropriate to use American cities as training grounds for the military, calling those people 'the enemy within'?

JOHNSON: I'm not comment on your characterization of what the president said.

Hillary Clinton: "When I hear people like Kennedy talking about getting back to a time where we aren't vaccinating, we're drinking raw milk - yeah, & people didn't live! I mean, this is so crazy, it's so wrongheaded, it's so shortsighted and it's going to cause deaths... it already is costing lives"

In 2024, teachers earned 73 cents for every dollar their similarly educated peers made, on average—a record low.

In 1996, the gap was much smaller: teachers earned 94 cents for every dollar.

We need to pay teachers more! How? By investing in public education.

Over the past three decades, stagnant weekly wages of public school teachers have fallen further and further behind those of college graduates who chose other careers, resulting in an ever increasing ...

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

The gap between teacher pay and other college graduates’ pay is the highest it’s been in over four decades.

Is there a “teacher shortage,” or a shortage of jobs that treat educators with the pay, dignity, and support they deserve?

Jimmy Kimmel and other late-night comedians have certainly said things about me that I found offensive, even outrageous.

It never crossed my mind to call up the networks and say, "Hey, get rid of this guy."

Because that's not how America works.

It’s not a crime to be in this country as an undocumented person. It’s a civil violation.

But you know what is a crime? Taking a bribe from undercover agents in exchange for the promise of government contracts WHEN YOU’RE THE FCKING BORDER CZAR.

@matthewjdowd.bsky.social what you just said regarding Kirk and hate filled speech is correct, Matthew.

The GOP is funded by wealthy pedos and predators.

It’s why Magic Mike sent everyone home rather than allow a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

It’s why Trump considers any push to release the files a hostile act against him.
Rep. Massie dropped a bomb: Billionaire John Paulson, top GOP donor, bankroller of the Speaker, and Trump’s campaign, is in Epstein’s black book.

This is why they’re terrified of a full release.
The truth won’t just expose Epstein.
It will expose the powerful who enabled him.
